It's funny, I went from at 27 spd to a 20 spd and feel like I have more gears! Guess because I rarely dropped to the small chainring in front, but with 10 in the rear, I feel I have more range. I was worried about loosing 7 spds, but now I see why the three combo in the front is not needed.

It's gorgeous! I love the shade of blue, and the "sparkly" look it has.

But what's that suitcase doing on your stem???

SRAM shifters work differently. Double Tap lets you shift in one direction the same way you would on Shimano, but you shift the other way by pushing the paddle lever even further than normal. I didn't like it, either, but mostly because of unfamiliarity.
